Routes are published by the person or the firm (their bio, the team page or a filing) and are revealed on a plan; data bought from a provider is never shown, and a route printed at a firm the person has since left is held back.

A look back at today’s portfolio companies, not a record of what the sponsor owned then. Mark is fair value over cost across every position inside the plausible band.
- A mark is the lender's own fair value over cost for the quarter. Below 90 means the lender carries the loan at a discount of 10 or more on the dollar; it is that lender's valuation, not DFX's.
- Two lenders on the same facility 10 points apart are valuing the same loan differently; which one is right is not something a schedule of investments says.
- Non-accrual is read from the BDC's own footnote, never inferred from a mark. PIK is interest the borrower pays in more debt rather than cash.
- No forecast is made here. DFX does not publish a default or distress prediction for a sponsor.
Population: portfolio companies matched to a BDC borrower by an identity-graded bridge, on a BDC schedule of investments at Jun 30, 2026, ownership not recorded as exited. Firms whose own BDC lends to the company, and private credit managers, are left out: that is lending, not ownership. Marks, principal and accrual status are the BDCs' own filed figures; the quarter before is Mar 31, 2026.
